Topic: One hit wonders (Read 1894 times)

It looks like Badger347 will not come back. He was on for one hour and made one post. So I looked thru the member database wondering how many people -- what fraction -- make one post and disappear. I thought I could grab the pages for a significant sample and cut and paste them into a spreadsheet to get the stats. The problem is there are so many 0 posters. So I gave up and came back later.

There are 91 pages * 30 entries per page but the last is only 2 entries so that is 2702 total.

ZERO ENTRIESThere are about 14 pages of 0 entries. Counting the over- and underflow that is 385 = 14.3%

One of these had the name ViagraEnLigne so some of these are robo entries by spambots.

1 ENTRY238 = 8.8%

2 ENTRIES132 = 4.9%

3 ENTRIES60 = 2.2%

4 ENTRIES121 = 4.5%

5 ENTRIES64 = 2.4%

Bored with counting further I sought out the median.

MEDIAN10

As I learned in statistics class the word "average" is a colloquialism with 4 different meanings in statistics. The median and the mean can both be properly called the "average". So the "average" member on WWGHA makes 10 posts and quits.
